Fields of Legal Expertise

Many attorneys practices are limited to certain types of cases or particular areas of the law.

For example, some attorneys only work on criminal defense cases, or patent cases, or personal injury cases. Many law firms have several different areas of practice. Other attorneys may be capable of taking on more than one type of case.

General practitioners offer representation on the widest assortment of cases, but even they do not agree to represent all clients, or handle all types of cases.
